Ebbett Toyota
Meet the team
Richard van den Engel
CEO
I was born into the car industry and despite spending some time working in architecture and accounting in Auckland, Hong Kong and London, I was drawn back to the Waikato and the automotive world in 2012. In late 2018 I moved into the Toyota/ Lexus business and it’s a real privilege being part of New Zealand’s largest vehicle brand and delivering on its unrivalled customer experience. I look forward to meeting all our customers soon and if I can be of any service please just get in touch on the links above.
Rawiri Riddell
Vehicle Consultant
Hi my name’s Rawiri, but everyone calls me Ra. I take pride in the fact that I am born and raised in Te Awamutu and enjoy its people and friendly atmosphere. My background is in construction but I recently moved to Sales to better suit my outgoing personality. I grew up with Toyotas and I have always had a passion for motor vehicles. I look forward to meeting new and existing clients to help them find the perfect vehicle to suit their lifestyle.
Jared Cooney
Service/Parts Manager
I have been in the automotive industry for 6 years in service department roles and I have worked with Ebbett Toyota for the past 2 years. I have a passion for customer service and take pride in offering our customers quality after sales care.
Sonja Clark
Service Receptionist
